1# The desktop's background programs, as systemd user services. On CachyOS most
2# of these were started by hyprland.lua (hl.exec_cmd at hyprland.start).
3#
4# uwsm starts Hyprland and then graphical-session.target; every service here is
5# wanted by that target and stopped with it, so they come up after the
6# compositor is ready and go away at logout. They are restarted if they crash.
7#
8# systemctl --user status waybar is it running, and its last log lines
9# journalctl --user -u waybar -f follow its log
10# systemctl --user restart waybar e.g. after changing its config
11#
12# Slices are uwsm's: session-graphical for the shell itself (bar, idle, wallpaper,
13# notifications), background-graphical for helpers.
